About Sammy
Bonded pair: Sammy & Alistair
Meet Sammy, a sweet and gentle boy seeking a special home. This timid boy will take time to warm up in his new home, but once comfortable, Sammy's playful side and love of toys shines through. Especially with the encouragement of his bonded cat friend Alistair leading the way.
Sammy's ideal home is a quiet and peaceful environment without kids or dogs, and with a present owner who can provide lots of time and patience. Although he doesn't love being touched and held now, in a loving environment and plenty of treats we know he has the potential to learn to trust and love his people.
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
Adoption details
We run by appointment, preferably all members of the household to come meet the animal you are wanting to adopt.
If you own another dog, you must bring them along to make sure all dogs get along.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
Appointment Hours:
Mon- 1-4pm
Tues- CLOSED
Wed- 1-4pm
Thurs- 1-4pm
Fri- 1-4pm
Sat- 9am-12:30pm - Dogs Only
Sun- CLOSED
Please give the shelter a call on 5334 2075 or email animalshelter@ballarat.vic.gov.au for more information about the animal and our adoption procedures.
Apologies if we do not reply to your enquiry, we are a busy Shelter and get pulled away from the office often.
We appreciate you wanting to adopt! Please do not let this discourage you from adopting in the future!
